Once you fill out and return an Authorization for Release of Protected Health Information form, we can send you an electronic version of your medical record via secure email or on a compact disc. If you prefer, we can send a copy to you via U.S. mail. Please fill out all highlighted areas on the form to avoid delays in processing.
